The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine We’re delighted to shine a light on La Croix de Certan 2016.

Château Certan de May is a jewel-sized 5.5-hectare vineyard and part of the highly exclusive Jean-Pierre Moueix portfolio. Since 2015, it has produced a second wine, La Croix de Certan, in very limited quantities — and we’re thrilled to present it today.
Wine La Croix de Certan 2016 is a sculpted wine, wonderfully fresh, with vibrant finesse and a rare refinement of texture.
Vinification Grapes harvested by hand, traditional vinification in temperature-controlled vats, aged in French oak barrels (10% new).
